5 Cars Featured in the Movies

If you’re looking for a great new ride to get your day started off just right, we’ve got some vehicles being sold right around the corner.

Movies and cars go together like, well, two things that go together really well. Recently, we saw "Fast and Furious 6" top the box office—it's a movie where the cars are almost like another character, and it has been reported that about 300 were used in the making of the film (each time one blew up, another was needed). So because we do live in a pop culture obsessed world, this week we focus on five cars sold in the area that are versions of ones that were featured in movies—maybe you too can feel part of the entertainment culture.

1. 2002 BMW M3 — Used — $25,999

From Cars.com: One of the vehicles featured in the 2009 extraterrestrial film "District 9," this car has vehicle stability assist, a traction control system, multi-function steering wheel and side impact air bags—because, frankly, when you're fighting extraterrestrials, or just trying to reason with them, sometimes you just need a little extra protection and help.

Available at Bridgewater Acura on Route 22.

2. 2011 Jeep Wrangler — Used — $24,202

From Cars.com: Featured as one of the vampire's vehicles in the "Twilight" series, this car has cruise control, four-wheel drive, power steering, stability control and more—because it's true that only fake vampires are able to move on their own at the speed of sound.

Available at Fullerton Auto Group on Route 22 in Somerville.

3. 2012 Dodge Charger SE — Used — $22,990

From Cars.com: Used in the most recent "Fast and Furious" film, this car has power mirrors, power driver's seats, power outlets and more to give you the power to feel like you're driving in the movie yourself—just maybe drive the car a little more carefully. Most can't afford to have 300 at their disposal.

Available at Liccardi Chrysler Dodge on Route 22 in Green Brook.

4. 2012 Volkswagon Beetle Entry PZEV — Used — $17,824

From Cars.com: It was used in the film "The Love Bug," at least the 1963 version of the car, but this car has heated mirrors, trip computer, keyless entry, cloth seats, rear bench seat and much more—but most importantly, it's just so darn cute.

Available at Fullerton Auto Group on Route 22 in Somerville.

5. 2013 Chevrolet Impala LTZ — Used — $21,395

From Cars.com: Used in "The Incredible Burt Wonderstone," a film about magicians trying to salvage their act, the car has color coded mirrors, an outside temperature gauge, tinted glass, a homelink system and so much more—lots of your own little magic tricks to play with.

Available at Royal Chevrolet on Route 22 in Bridgewater.
